Chapter 483

When Cindy was done yelling, she turned to me. "Why did you do that, Wanda Lane?”

My belly was aching, and I was eager to go upstairs and rest. Not wanting to deal with her, I said,

"All the reasons you can think of are the reasons why I did so, Miss Reed."

"You vicious woman!” Had it not been for Miss Woods, Cindy would have pounced at me. "Why are

you framing my mother over and over again? Is it because you hate me?"

Her words nearly had me in fits of laughter. "You take yourself too seriously, Miss Reed. You're not

worth my effort to frame your mother. Besides, do you even know what framing means? Your

mother has done so many evil deeds, so that’s not framing. That's her getting what she deserves.”

"Shut up!" Cindy probably did not know if she was trying to fool others or herself. "My mother didn't

do anything, so why did you frame her? First, you snatched Theo away from me. Now, you're trying

to make me lose my parents. Do you really loathe me this much?"

She started crying as she spoke, her emotions breaking down completely.

I looked coldly at her. "I hope you can look at what you have done first before questioning others,

Miss Reed. Stop thinking that you can hurt others but you don't deserve to be hurt in return."

Cindy knew I was referring to the fact that she and her mother had killed my baby, so she viciously

said," No one hurt you. You're the one who broke your promise first. You agreed to abort the child

but didn’t. The child deserved to die! You can’t blame anyone for i t!"

There was no way anyone would not be mad at those words.

I pushed Miss Woods aside and walked up to Cindy, staring at her with a sullen gaze. "I don't care

what you think but who are you to say that my child deserved to die?

"I want both of you to pay for what you've done.

However, I’ll not do the same cruel thing you did. I’ll punish you and your mother through proper

legal means."

I did not give Cindy the chance to speak and continued, "Rather than wasting your time speaking

nonsense with me, why don't you use the time to go back and spend time with your mother? The

police will soon take her away and she'll be charged with bribery, intentional murder, and plundering

money. All the properties and assets she owns will be taken b y the local authorities. She’ll be left

with nothing and spend the rest of her life in prison. Do you think you'll live a carefree life in the

Louises without your mother's protection?"

"Wanda Lane!" Cindy's eyes turned scarlet in anger." I'll kill you!"

Before she could do anything, I grabbed her hair first. " What’s wrong? Do you want to spend the

rest of your life in prison like your mother or do you want me to put a bullet through your head and

send you to hell straight away?

"Bring it on, then. Let me tell you clearly that I'm over the moon right now because you and your

mother will no longer lead easy lives. This fact alone makes dying worthwhile."

I let go of her hair after saying those words.

Cindy looked resentfully at me. "Stop being so smug with yourself. Do you think Theowy will leave

me to fend for myself? He’ll never do that. He has already made all the arrangements for me. Even

if my parents are no longer around, I’ll still live the rest of my life carefree. I'll pester him forever, and

my shadow will haunt your marriage forever."

My expression sank when I heard what she said.

Was what she said true?

Theo had a backup plan for her?

Seeing my expression change, Cindy smiled smugly." Do you know what forever means? It means

that you and Theowy may not spend the rest of your lives

together but he'll have to take care of me for the rest of his life."

I sneered. "You're pretty farsighted, huh? Have you never thought that you could die tomorrow? I

live in the moment. At least Theo and I are on good terms at the moment, so I don't care if you

pester him because h e doesn’t even like you. Sometimes, it's pretty amusing to see you acting like

a clown."

Seeing that her words did not have any impact on me, Cindy reluctantly ground her teeth. "Let's

wait and see, then."

I did not want to waste my breath talking to her anymore and said blandly, "If there’s nothing else,

Miss Reed, then go home and keep your mother company. I'm going back to my room to rest."
